But liposuction was the big winner in this report with a 16 percent surge in popularity over the previous year. And while the actual number of breast augmentations dipped by about five percent, breast surgery is still the second most popular cosmetic or plastic surgery procedure in the United States overall.

Other procedures that top the list of sought-after plastic surgery procedures include:

Eyelid surgery

Tummy tucks, and

Nose surgery

"The numbers do not come as a surprise," ASAPS President Jack Fisher said in a prepared statement about the new industry research. "Technological advances, less-invasive procedures [and] greater accessibility are making esthetic procedures, surgical and nonsurgical, far more attractive to the public at-large."
